This is a great choice Joe and thanks for reaching out!
Weigh Safe True Tow Weight Distribution Hitch # WS49MR would be a good match for your setup.
Since your Grand Design toy hauler will have a loaded tongue weight between 1,300 and 1,600 lbs, this hitch falls right in the recommended weight range.
One thing to keep in mind is that toy hauler tongue weight can vary quite a bit depending on how you load the garage area. If you expect the tongue weight to regularly exceed 1,600 lbs when fully loaded, you would want to move up to the next higher rated system.
What toys do you typically haul in the 27 Mav?
